            Bug ID: 451500
           Summary: Current timestamp for some media players (e. g.
                    Spotify) is wrong / starts at 0:00 when opening the
                    applet
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.24.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Media Player
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: firlaevhans.fi...@protonmail.com
                CC: k...@privat.broulik.de
  Target Milestone: 1.0

SUMMARY
If you play a song in Spotify and let it play for a few seconds, then open the
media player applet, it will display the timestamp as 0:00 and count up from
there, rather than displaying the correct timestamp. If you then close the
applet and open it again a few seconds later, it will continue at the timestamp
at which you closed it.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Play a song in Spotify (some other players might be affected too)
2. A few seconds later, open the media control applet and compare the timestamp
displayed in there with the one in Spotify itself
3. Close the applet and open it again a few seconds later

OBSERVED RESULT
The time code displayed in the media control applet is different from the
actual time code (starts at 0:00 instead of the actual time code).
E. g. the current song is at 0:23 of 3:53, you open the applet, it says 0:00 of
3:53, 5 seconds later the song is at 0:27 but the applet either says 0:05 of
3:53 instead of 0:27, or it's simply frozen at 0:00.

EXPECTED RESULT
The media control applet should get the correct timestamp from Spotify, or, if
that's not possible, just don't display a (wrong) time code at all as it's
rather confusing to the user.
